Trend Alert: Rounded Furniture

Written By: Jaymi Naciri

Over all those hard edges? We have some good news for you. After many years of being dominated by straight lines, curves are making a comeback in interior design. Business Insider called rounded furniture one of the hottest design trends this year. "The furniture is a lot more substantial and rounded off where it was feeling very squared," Caitlin Murray, founder and CEO ofnbsp;Black Lacquer Design, told them.

Theyre not alone. Everyone from Elle Deacute;cor to Architectural Digest has been touting this trend, which is now starting to settle in as a "must-have."

"A boxy item here and there is fine, but 2017 will be the year rounded edges and circular furniture return," said Elle Decor. Patti Carpenter, a "global ambassador and found of carpenter company," told them, "Its all about finding a place of calm and comfort in this constant chaos and information that we constantly have coming at us." In short, they said, "its all about comforthellip;not edginess."

Dont be afraid to take your whole room to a curvy place. You may want to mix up the color palette a little, but the three-piece set looks chic together. The faux marble wallpaper behind the seating area? Thats another top trend.
